Inheritance of Osteosarcoma & Paget's Disease Through Chromosome 18:

Terminated
Conditions
Paget's Disease
Osteosarcoma
Registration Number
NCT00615628
Lead Sponsor
State University of New York - Upstate Medical University
Brief Summary

Researchers have previously demonstrated loss of heterozygosity in a region on chromosome 18q, associated with osteogenic sarcomas in bone affected by Paget's disease. The loci used in this study are specifically described by those authors as showing loss of heterozygosity in 6 of 7 affected families.
